Edward Chapman in The Turf Libel
Written by Richard Du Cann
Sievier came to the turf with a love for gambling; Wootton with a love for horses. When they clashed the battle was hard fought and the result unexpected.

Characters in order of speaking:
Produced by H. B. Fortuin
Modesty, flattery, arrogance-university lecturer, Herbert Bromilow, tries them all in turn. But it is one of these attitudes which brings him to the top as TV personality and public figure. The play demonstrates which quality is most likely to lead to success with dour land-ladies, ambitious girl artists, club bores, and awkward students. Or indeed what dangers result from the wrong choice.
